Where to Stay for the AIPC/CCC 2024 Academy: InterContinental Toronto Centre & Delta Hotel Toronto
Where to Stay for the AIPC/CCC 2024 Academy
While the CC of C room block has sold out, there are still excellent options for accommodations for the AIPC/CCC 2024 Academy. Two top recommendations are the InterContinental Toronto Centre and the Delta Hotel Toronto, offering easy access to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (MTCC).
InterContinental Toronto Centre
For maximum convenience, the InterContinental Toronto Centre is directly connected to the MTCC, allowing seamless access to the event venue. This luxury hotel offers spacious rooms, modern amenities, and skyline or waterfront views. Guests can relax at the spa or indoor pool or enjoy fine dining at the Azure Restaurant & Bar.
Delta Hotel Toronto
The Delta Hotel Toronto is a short 5–7-minute walk from the MTCC. Situated in downtown Toronto, this modern hotel is close to major attractions and Union Station. The Delta features stylish rooms, a fitness center, an indoor pool, and dining options like SOCO Kitchen + Bar.
Both hotels provide excellent accommodations for AIPC/CCC attendees, whether you prefer direct access or a short, scenic walk to the convention centre.
